Fiber optic networks and their installed components operate in a variety of environments and industries around the world. From military systems to telecommunication networks, fiber optic components experience a wide range of usage conditions and must be tested to effectively characterize their performance in any setting.

As the world’s leading independent, third-party testing laboratory, we provide a full testing solution for optical component characterization. Using the swept wavelength test method, we collect wavelength measurement data and perform a full analysis to give you a complete picture of insertion loss, polarization dependent loss, return loss and directivity.

Our MAP swept wavelength system and state-of-the-art optics lab allows us to meet all of your optical component testing needs. With over 50 years of product testing experience, our single-source laboratories and expert staff help you deliver compliant, high-performance products to market. In addition to optical component characterization, MET can also perform testing for environmental hardiness and 100% performance verification for production models.
